Patchwork Jazz Orchestra is releasing 3D animated music videos. This one, Frank Loesser’s If I Were a Bell, is the fifth. It has a giddying animation, some great soloing from brother and sister Tom and Alex Ridout, and an impassioned plea from trombonist/arranger/ videographer Kieran McLeod. The aim is to “send a message of solidarity amongst the creative industries against the UK government’s lack of direct support for our creative industries.”
